3 Must-Have iPhone Apps Which Will Help You Alienate More of Your Friends

A number of remarkable minds have walked the Earth through the centuries, from Leonardo di Vinci to Paris Hilton. However, very few have ever managed to reach the incredible heights achieved by Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.

A man who undoubtedly saw the true potential of technology well ahead of normal humans, it is only fitting that his achievements were immortalised on the big screen by two powerhouse actors – Michael Fassbender of Shame and Hunger and Ashton Kutcher from That ’70s Show.

One of Jobs’s truly fascinating predictions came back in 1983 when he envisaged that we would all be using apps in the future. That dream has now become a reality and we have access to all kinds of software at our fingertips.

A world of incredible innovation

When Apple’s App Store first launched back in 2008, it featured a grand total of 500 apps. Nowadays, visitors to it have access to in the region of two million.

Some incredible innovations have emerged through the world of apps, from iPhone antivirus software, which keeps our selfies safe from harm, to services which allow us to order a pizza at the touch of a button. There are even fitness apps that track our movement and are ideal for that moment when the guilt from consuming the aforementioned pizza kicks in.

But, while apps have made a massive difference to so many of our lives, which ones remain the essential downloads that will help you navigate life in the 21st century? We apologise in advance.

1. Poop Map

Social media is undoubtedly one of the greatest success stories of the app age, with sites like Facebook and Twitter giving people the opportunity to air their dirty laundry in public and work colleagues an opportunity to overshare on their personal lives.

If both of those things appeal to you, you are sure to love Poop Map – an app which simply allows you to track your toilet habits and where you do the deed. Not only that, you get to then share that information with your friends, who are sure to be delighted to get the update.

2. Hold On!

You might have thought that the likes of Angry Birds! and Clash of Clans were the only names that matter in mobile gaming. Well, think again my friend.

Hold On! tests your staying power by tracking how long you can hold a button for. If you don’t fancy going it alone you can even use Bluetooth to connect with friends and challenge them to a multiplayer game. After all, who needs Fortnite?

3. Is it Dark Outside?

What is the meaning of life? Where is my other sock? How is Keeping Up with the Kardashians still going? These are just a few of the big questions that humanity has wrestled with down the years.

While the question of whether it is dark outside is not a major one, this app will clear up any confusion or uncertainty for you. Furthermore, it also means that windows will fall down the list of priorities when you are looking to move house.

Life-changing experiences

It has been ten years since Apple introduced us to the App Store and it is fair to say that apps have had a huge impact on our lives.

However, we’re sure that these specific apps will only transform your life even further – although not necessarily in a good way.
